Fight again in Shandong, draw. It's a little bit further from coach Lecco's ultimate goal of winning and getting confident, but that doesn't affect the team's overall good form. It can be clearly seen that after the second half, the team immediately raised the offensive rhythm and revitalized the organization of the midfield.
Mui's continuous highlight performance also made the subsequent FA Cup final battle more reassuring, in addition, Hu Jinghang's performance deserves everyone's attention. The author is by no means because of his "one-game theory" after passing the merit, Hu Jinghang got a stable playing time from December 19, 2021, the first meeting between Shanghai Harbor and Shandong, and started in the match against Guangzhou City on December 29, 2021. This is no accident, Lecco once said at the press conference that the best players in the current state will be selected to play in the league, then Hu Jinghang has undoubtedly entered the 16-person appearance of Lecco.
Moreover, fans who have watched the recent full game of harbor will find that Hu's game status and the rationality and self-confidence of handling the ball have made great progress. The player, who once topped the title of "Wu Lei II", gradually gained a foothold in the first team of the harbor at the age of 25. 2016 was Hu Jinghang's first time representing Shanghai Harbor in the intercontinental arena, when he was 20 years old, he also came out of the Chongming Genbao Base with a green face and an immeasurable future. The same story takes place in 2021, with a young player named Liu Zhurun, 20 years old, in the first team.
Five years, "I waited five years," just for this opportunity.
Let's first look at The goals and assists of Xiao Hu in this game, as can be seen from the GIF, Hu Jinghang's basic skills such as running, shooting, passing, and stopping the ball are very stable, as the main member of the 97th National Olympic Games, Hu Jinghang's play time in the harbor over the years is slightly lower than that of his peers. However, the team did not give up on cultivating him, and the operation of the Chinese Super League team on loan three times was enough to prove that the team still had certain expectations for him. This is similar to the situation of Li Shenyuan, who returned to win the heart of the head coach with his attitude and stable play after the loan, just like the mavericks in the FM game after growing to the first team level.
In the football world, there are many players who are typical of late success, whether it is the current Leicester City's top scorer Valdi, or the Italian goalscorer Tony, who did not break out until the age of 27, to the legendary stars Milito, Bierhoff and so on. Opening late does not mean regret, when the opportunity comes to seize is inspirational.
Many fans said that without the current depressed economic environment and the homesickness of foreign aid in the Chinese Super League, many domestic players would not have been able to get so much playing time. Yes, everything is a blessing and a curse, and after the 93/94 age group, domestic players have a serious succession gap and a national player fault. To take a clear example, under the condition that the Guangzhou team had to use the all-Chinese class lineup this season, the 95 players who bought 20 million of them in that year have gained a lot of playing time, in other words, if this group of players is still backlogged in the guangzhou team with a thick bench depth, this group of players is likely to end up in the future.
The same is true for Hu Jinghang of the 97/98 class, the overall environment pattern of the Chinese Super League in the next few years is basically the same, leaving aside whether the Shanghai Harbor team can introduce a strong striker next season, Hu Jinghang can seize the opportunity in these games, and the rotation playing time given to him in the future is destined to be no less. Li Shenglong, who gave Hu Jinghang a heel assist last night, is the best example, perhaps the talent is not outstanding, but hard work and diligence can make up for many gaps. Liu Zhurun, the U21 youngster who was replaced at the last moment last night, was also telling Hu Jinghang that everyone had a talented youth. One after the other, Hu Jinghang's 2022 opening year pressure and power coexist!
